We are independent. We don't take sides. We act in the public interest to resolve complaints and improve the standard of Tasmanian public administration. You can complain to us if you think you have been treated unfairly or unreasonably by a Tasmanian public authority.
Issues we look into
Some of the issues we look into include:
- the actions of Tasmanian government departments and agencies
- how local government services are provided
- the treatment and welfare of people in prison
- administrative actions of state-owned businesses and government business enterprises.
Some examples of complaints we have investigated can be found on the case summaries page.
We can only help with the actions of Tasmanian public authorities.
